Turning Zoomies Into Miles 🐕💨

What sets me apart? I bring real energy, structure, and heart to every walk and visit. I’m a runner, so high-energy dogs get more than a slow stroll — they get a safe, engaging workout that actually helps burn off those zoomies. Whether your dog loves to jog, power-walk, or explore at a fast pace, I match their energy and needs. I’m also a full-time caregiver, which means patience, attentiveness, and reliability are second nature to me. I’m highly observant, calm under pressure, and committed to providing consistent, compassionate care — skills that translate perfectly to working with dogs of all ages. Special skills & experience: 🐶 Puppy care: helping reinforce good leash manners, basic commands, and positive walking habits 🐕‍🦺 Senior dogs: gentle pacing, extra patience, and close attention to comfort and safety ⚡ High-energy breeds: structured walks or runs to keep them happy, healthy, and relaxed afterward I treat every dog like my own and make sure you come home to a pup who’s not just cared for — but happily tired. 🐾

Mika was very caring when it came to my dogs. She communicated very well and was great. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because caring for others is what I do full time. As a full-time caregiver, I structure my schedule around responsibility, consistency, and reliability, which allows me to prioritize each pet’s needs without rushing or overbooking. As a runner, regular walks and runs are already part of my day, so adding dogs to those routines feels seamless. This means your dog gets dedicated time, focused attention, and the right level of physical and mental stimulation — not just a quick break. I plan my days to allow flexibility for different energy levels, whether that’s an energetic run, a structured walk, puppy training reinforcement, or a slower, more gentle outing for senior dogs. Because pet care is intentionally built into my routine, your pet always receives dependable, unrushed, and attentive care they can count on. 🐾

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

our pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your dog in your home or taking them out for a walk or run, I follow consistent routines and clear safety practices to ensure they feel secure and well cared for. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions exactly as provided — feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, keep personal items out of reach, and maintain a calm, clean environment so your pet feels relaxed and at ease. On walks and runs, safety comes first. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, stay alert to surroundings, and adjust pace and distance based on your dog’s age, health, and energy level. I always watch for signs of stress, fatigue, or overheating and prioritize hydration and rest when needed.
